In a sport's team everyone is taught how to play their own position and what every other member of the team will be doing. They work as one body made up of individuals. They are acknowledged for their accomplishments and publicly cheered. They know their own goals and those of the team.They follow the advice of the coach who is paid for keeping the team trained and in shape for the game.
In our business we have a coach, called a sponsor. While most SFI teams do not work together as a sports team does, we are all trained, kept in shape (attitude), have similar goals, and hopefully listen to our sponsor, who also is paid for keeping us in the game..
To keep the team strong and successful, the sponsor must help set goals, teach game plans, keep up the morale, and dole out lots of praise for successful actions. While it may be easier to praise one, it is important to praise, encourage, or reassure the others.
Do it publicly in the Stream, Group Mailers, and with e-cards, without using full names. Respect their privacy but build a bond between them. And let them know that you are always available for them.
